Lust for Life

About This Movie

Lust for Life, while perhaps lesser-known, really navigates the intricacies of aging in the music industry through El Perro del Mar’s lens. It’s intriguing how the film captures that blend of melancholy and beauty, especially when it questions where female artists find themselves as time marches on. The pacing feels almost hypnotic, matching the reflective tone of the music. There's a fascinating rawness to the visuals that pairs well with the themes of hope and resilience. The performances are heartfelt and grounded, adding layers to the narrative. It’s thoughtful and somewhat bittersweet, making you ponder the complexities of self-worth in a world that often overlooks women as they age.
